    2 NVME connectors, plenty of USB, socket AM4. It is a 550 motherboard and includes what you would expect. Note that this one does not have WiFi or BT built in, so if you need those, plan accordingly.

    This was a pretty good mobo. Has everything you need for a gamers set up EXCEPT wifi. That was the only con of this mobo. Fortunately I have an adapter already so I didn’t mind it but there are some cheaper choices that include wifi. Price was good overall since it was near BF sale and Ryzen 5000 ready. Didn’t want to deal with BIOS flash.

    Wish i had more technical literacy while reviewing this, had no problems with installation, getting to bios for setup was a breeze, there were some issues getting pc to post but that was due to operator error, overall a very solid choice!

    Motherboard worked great for my system. Previously had a micro-ITX build with an MSI B450 Gaming Plus AC paired with a Ryzen 5 2700x, but the motherboard shorted out due to thermal dissipation issues. Obviously the CPU is outdated and not technically supported with the B550. However, after reading up on the board, it has no issues with the 2700x. After building my system with the new board everything worked perfectly. Very happy with this board so far and my system temps are loving the ATX build over the micro-itx

    The MSI B550 Gaming Plus motherboard is a good value for a budget build. The only major problem I faced is my first motherboard I purchased was faulty. It would not turn on with the CPU installed due to a faulty CPU socket and had to exchange it. Other than that, its easy to install to the case with the attached I/O shield. Setting up XMP was easy with just a few clicks in the UEFI.

    Awesome board. Attached heat shield makes u stall easier. RGB fully supported. Plenty of memory expansion. Good overclock features. Usb-c header is a good addition. Flash BIOS a must for newer processors if you don’t have an older processor to use. Two m2 slots are also great for gaming. If you want AM4/DDR4 board this is cost effective. Good looking board. Speeds are great although I have not tried faster m2 slot yet.

    A very nice looking Motherboard with a changing RGB colors. The I/O shield is also very nice. It has more than enough USB ports for a keyboard, mouse, and headset. DOES NOT HAVE BUILT IN WIFI, so make sure to get an ethernet cable or a WIFI adapter.

    It came with the bios update for the 5000 series. Bios is well laid out and easy to navigate. I would just like to see a auto OC feature like the EVGA bios has. This has PBO, but doesn't push it far beyond stock boost levels.

    For the money, it definitely shines brightly!! Way better than the previous MSI boards. This B550 has many more options like USB-C Front panel connection than some X570 boards. Only lacking in PCI-E 4 when it comes to adding more storage or video cards.
